But why do they arise? Put simply,they are the result of excessive melanin production. And there are several reasons for this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Solar radiation:<\/strong> UV radiation is the main cause. Repeated, intensive sun exposure causes your skin to age prematurely. This is also known as &#8220;photo-aging&#8221;. A process that is closely associated with the term <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/?page_id=5824\">anti-aging<\/a>. UVA rays, which penetrate deeper into the skin, play a special role in the overproduction of melanin.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/?page_id=5797\">Skin aging<\/a>:<\/strong> Over time, the cells that produce melanin lose their efficiency. This leads to an uneven distribution and formation of those brown spots.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Genetics:<\/strong> Yes, your DNA also plays a role. Some of us tend to develop more age spots as we get older.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hormonal changes:<\/strong> Hormones such as oestrogen and progesterone can influence melanin production.
